EA's set to offer even more pre-order incentives for Battlefield 3, with a FOURTH pack spotted for the DICE first-person shooter.
The Specact Kit joins Play.com's bonus dog tags and the Back to Karkand Map Pack, a selection of multiplayer arenas remade from Battlefield 2, available to those who pre-order the Limited Edition version of Battlefield 3.
The fourth pack is GAME's controversial Physical Warfare Pack, which got the community all aflutter because it offers Battlefield early birds a roster of exclusive guns that won't be made available to Ordinary Joes at a later date.
Fans complained this would give certain players an unfair advantage, but EA quickly came out to assure the items "were specifically chosen not to be overpowered or imbalance or break the game in any way."

When are they going to reveal the Battle(COD)Field pre order incentives?
Pre order in Game and when you do, remember to ask the staff to give you your Battle(COD)Field bonus. It gives you a code to download DLC for the main campaign, where it turns all enemies on screen into characters modelled on Bobby Kotick, Soap McTavish & Capt. John Price. A must for any Battlefield or EA Fan!

Incorrect articale is incorrect. (slightly)
DICE themselves confirmed that the Physical Warefare pack will be released to EVERYBODY, Free of Charge. Just at a significantly later date than those who got the items in the Pre-order pack.
No word has been said about the 5 custom Dogtags, Or the Spec-Act skins being released at a later date also, alongside the Physical Warfare pack. Which is what i'll assume they'll do anyways, unless EA want to make a bit of money off the Spec-Act stuff again.

I've noticed that a coupel of Play.com DLC havent been made available. main one being AvP skins. and from what can see they cant be unlocked ingame either. i always preorder from a coupel of places online and just make sure theres no cash in the account. the company generally sends teh codes out automatically to all registered preorder emails so then just cancel order and u can get multiple preorder DLC offers

Phew... here I thought I'm going to miss out on something big (I've pre ordered the Limited edition). Apparently just another batch of things that we're not going to see much of the time except during kill cam shots and we see our body flying across the scenery.
Nothing to see here, then.
